All,
Forgive me for coming to the party late!
I have wasted hours of my life on this sh*t show that Garmin think is acceptable to release to paying customers!! Please see my findings below…
The unit itself (XT2) is generally flawless if used itself to get from A to B, if however like me you tour a lot and want to share and plan routes around certain points/locations with MRA (best route software out there) All the options below are for OTA file transfer using the MRA app and the Tread app.
GPX 1.0 route will work but no shaping points shown on the map but works!
GPX 1.1 Track/POI convert to route on the unit, works!
GPX 1.1 Route/Track/POI works but you have to check and if necessary adjust the route on the unit.
GPX 1.2 Drops the shaping points and adjusts the route between the via points… I have absolutely no idea why…? This option is definitely no good!
Thanks for an amazing piece of software MRA!
Andy.
